    I’m going to go ahead and try to use this comment as a teachable moment.

    For one, this comment barely skirts the line to me as acceptable. If you aren’t interested in AI topics, thats what the [AIT] and [AIP] tags are for - for you, as a user, to choose what you are interested in and what you are not.

    The first part of your comment, by itself, I would have simply removed. You asked for alternatives, and are being rightfully replied to pointing out that this is all under the subject of automation, which (to me) barely puts this above low effort.

    If you don’t want to see AI discussions in the future, use the tags to filter. If I see more comments like this that are barely, and entirely subjectively just above low-effort, the bar is going to raise just a hair and they will be removed, as they will come across like trying to skirt the rules.















  • That being said, it should be okay for users to call out an obvious grift, or a “nonsense repo” that’s actually pure slop.

    Especially if the disclosure is blatantly a lie, absolutely. I’d also say if you see any indicators that they are lying in the disclosure, its still worthy of reporting - but I would say report and separately message the “why”, to limit visibility of seeing those indicators.


  • Just to point out a few projects that allow AI contributions:

    • Firefox
    • NodeJS
    • Chromium
    • curl
    • Go
    • InfluxDB
    • MariaDB
    • Prometheus
    • Linux
    • openSSL
    • Blender
    • Mattermost
    • Caddy

    If you want all projects related to AI in a different community, it may be easier for you to start “selfhosted_without_ai” or something.
